Details
According to the publication, he will officially announce his decision on Friday afternoon.
Habek spreads sophisticated messages with hints on Elon Musk's social platform X (formerly Twitter), having returned his profile on this network after a several-year break.
After his account was restored, he wrote: "Back for good". Then he explained his X-return: he did not want to leave the platform to "shouters and populists.
Some time later, Habek posted an 11-second video. In it, the Minister of Economy sits at a desk and fills out documents. For a split second, Habeck's wrist can be seen in close-up. He is wearing a friendship bracelet, just like millions of Taylor Swift fans. On Gabeck's bracelet is written: "Kanzler Era," which means ‘The Chancellor's Era’ in German.
The hint that Robert Habeck will announce his candidacy today is also skillfully hidden. A calendar can be seen in the background. One day is marked in red: Friday, November 8. The calendar can also be seen in close-up for a brief moment.
Recall
This week in Germany, the parliamentary coalition and the government collapsed. German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier is ready to dissolve the Bundestag to hold early elections in March.
Despite the crisis associated with Trump's return, Germany will keep most of the promised €4 billion in aid to Ukraine for 2025 even if the budget is delayed. Mr. Gabek, as Minister of Economy, has repeatedly stated his continued support for Ukraine. He advocated for its preservation even if the $50 billion financial support from the G7 countries, which will be provided by frozen Russian assets, is not allocated.
